Don't forget about the lunar eclipse tonight!

[sunflowers]

The main event begins at 10:01 p.m. ET, when the moon is completely covered by the darkest part of Earth's shadow. That translates to 9:01 p.m. CT, 8:01 p.m. MT and 7:01 p.m. PT. The total phase of the eclipse lasts 51 minutes, and the moon starts coming out of the darkest shadow, or umbra, at 10:52 p.m. ET.

We never seem to have a clear night when these eclipses happen. And right now it's pretty cloudy. Oh well.

I was looking forward to this, but Im pretty much out of luck. Its friggin cloudy, going to snow. I might get lucky but I doubt it :(

[atprm]

the moon is just GLOWING right now! not a cloud in the SE Michigan sky. :)

[freeby4me]

They should turn out ok. I took some of the last one and they were really good.

couldnt see it here of course it was too cloudy. we never get to see anything special like this. the next lunar eclipse is 2010

[MistyWolf]

Seen it at work tonite .. it was really cool!

[BigLyd1]

Wow, it actually cleared up enough for me to see it for once, even though the moon went behind the clouds a couple of times.

[DestinysGrandma]

It was so cool....and eerie....the moon was red...we also saw parts of the spy satellite that the navy shot down. at first we thought it was a meteor shower but, the way the particles were falling didn't look like any meteor shower I've ever seen. It was kinda like the movie independence day after the mother ship was destroyed and the pieces were falling through the atmosphere only less pieces....lol....We got quite a show!

[PrincessArky]

nothing but clouds here so we saw nothing........and can ya believe my 10 yr old got mad at me??? told her she would have to take that up with a higher power than me

[nanajoanie]

I could see parts of thru my windows but as it moved higher in the sky I went outside. My grandkidlettes and son were out there too. Did you notice that the clouds had a pale pinkish tint to them?

Just what I was thinking! The one time it rains in Phoenix.... :doh

I did get to see it on TV at least.
